USE A CAPO ON 3rd.
[Verse]
Em D
Sweet life livin', pools and swimming.
Bm C
Drinks in bars and boys in cars and
Em D
rooftop sitting, skinny dipping,
Bm C
shooting stars with fat cigars and...
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D
That weekend up in the islands, they stop and stare.
Bm C
Flashes filling the silence of a Hollywood love affair.
Em D
Waking up in the islands, 'cause I saw you there,
Bm
lost and trying to be...
[Chorus]
Em
I was just tryna to be cool,
D G C
I was just tryna to be like you.
Em
I'm a spark and you're a boom,
D G C
what am I supposed to do?
[Verse]
Em D Bm C
Mansion debut, love it, do you? Absent father pays his daughter,
Em D
and her mama withdrew from the life they once knew.
Bm C
She had a heart but she sold it off for.
[Pre-Chorus]
Em D
That weekend up in the islands, they stop and stare.
Bm C
Flashes filling the silence of a Hollywood love affair.
Em D
Waking up in the islands, 'cause I saw you there,
Bm
lost and trying to be...
[Chorus]
Em
I was just tryna to be cool,
D G C
I was just tryna to be like you.
Em
I'm a spark and you're a boom,
D G C
what am I supposed to do?
[Bridge]
Em
When I've got that cigarrete smoke and Saint Laurent coat,
D G
But nothing is feeling right, I drink but I choke,
C C
I love but I don't, yeah. I was just tryna to be cool.
D G C
I was just tryna to be like you.

I was just tryna to be like you.
Em
I'm a spark and you're a boom,

[Outro]

When I've got that cigarrete smoke and Saint Laurent coat,

But nothing is feeling right, I drink but I choke,
